Scene 6 – In the centre of the stage sits a young girl with her head in her hands, she is sobbing. Another girl is taunting her, but keeps her back to the audience. We cannot see either of the girls faces.
Girl 2: You're SO pathetic.
Girl 1: (sobbing) Leave me alone!
Girl 2: You'll never fit in here, you know that don't you. You'll never belong.
Girl 1: I never asked to come here.
Girl 2: Well neither did I but there's no need to cry about it.
Girl 1: Why do you have to pick on me?
Girl 2: Because you're such a coward.
(Girl 2 comes towards Girl 1 and starts to beat her around the head)
Girl 2: (shouting and repeating) Such a fucking coward! You're such a fucking coward!
Girl 1: (crying and repeating) Leave me alone!
(Ben enters from the stage, watches the scene for a moment and then pulls the girls apart)
Ben: (grabbing Girl 2 by the arm) What's she done to you?
Girl 2: Does she have to have done something?
Ben: (throws her aside) Yes! (he then pulls Girl 1 to her feet and speaks to her) Are you ok Jenny?
Girl 1: (for the first time we see her face, tear streaked) I'm not Jenny…
(Ben looks confused)
Girl 2: I'm Jenny!
(we see her face for the first time and realise it's Jenny)
Ben: (shocked) You're Jenny?
(Jenny nods)
Ben: You're the prim and proper Jenny?
Jenny: Yeah I'm Jenny, but who the fuck are you?
Ben: Redundant that's what I am.
Jenny: (takes out cigarette and blows the smoke at Girl 1) Well you can fuck off! (to Ben) Redundant from what?
Ben: Your stepmother sent me…to er….seduce you….looks like there's no need…
Jenny: (laughs) Fucking Marrissa! Well you can fuck off as well then….(she grabs his arm as he turns to go)…wait a minute. Was she going to pay you for this little venture?
Ben: She paid for all my travel, my living expenses and everything I would have needed…why?
Jenny: Well it just seems a shame for all of Marrissa's efforts to go to waste.
Ben: I suppose we should take advantage of her…er…..good nature, so to speak.
Jenny: So it's a bit unfair that you know my name and I don't know/yours…
Ben: It's Ben.
Jenny: Well Ben lets go and spend some of Marrissa's money (she turns to him) you know you're not bad looking. If I was a nice girl it would bother me that you've been having an affair with my father's wife….
Ben: Let me guess. You're not a nice girl?
Jenny: I am when daddy's around. I suppose Marrissa's told you the news.
Ben: (he takes Jenny's cigarette and takes a drag) News?
Jenny: She's only gone and got herself pregnant.
Ben: (shocked) Pregnant?
(End of scene)
